The Six-Figure Doula: For career birth workers building sustainable, high-income businesses
For the doula or perinatal pro who knows this work changes lives and deserves to pay well.
For the woman who’s done undercharging, overgiving, and second-guessing herself.
For the one who’s ready to build a sustainable, profitable business without selling her soul or burning herself out.
On The Six Figure Doula Podcast, we talk about the conversations most doulas avoid:
- Money, pricing, and premium offers
- Sales without pressure, manipulation, or bro-marketing
- Building visibility & magnetic marketing that actually attracts aligned clients
- Leadership, identity, and the mindset shifts required to grow
- Simplifying your business instead of piling on more noise
This isn’t a podcast about doing more.
It’s about doing less- better.
You won’t find hustle culture here.
You won’t find watered-down social media advice or “try this trend” strategies.
And you definitely won’t find permission to stay small.
You’ll find honest reflections, real sales strategy, and direct conversations about what it actually takes to become a booked-out, confident, well-paid doula.
This podcast is for you if:
- You want premium clients who respect your work
- You’re ready to sell with integrity and certainty
- You’re done explaining or justifying your prices
- You want freedom, not chaos disguised as “passion”
- You’re all-in on building something that lasts
If you’re looking for comfort, this isn’t it.
If you’re looking for clarity, conviction, and a business that supports your life-
you’re in the right place.
Welcome to The Six Figure Doula Podcast.
Let’s build something real.

88. Why Your Doula Business Is Stuck Under 10K Months
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
There was a season in my doula business where I was stuck making about $2K a month… while working constantly.
Late nights.
Weekend consults.
Posting on Instagram.
Networking in Facebook groups.
Tweaking my website.
Lowering my prices.
I was doing everything the industry said to do—and nothing was changing.
In this episode, I’m sharing the moment I realized I had completely misdiagnosed the problem in my business.
Because most doulas don’t actually have a lead problem.
They have a bottleneck problem.
Once I figured out where my business was truly stuck, everything shifted—and I went from $2K months to consistent $10K+ months as an in-person doula.
If you feel like you’re working incredibly hard but your income isn’t reflecting it, this episode will help you identify what’s really going on.
In This Episode
• The brutal math behind my $2K months
• Why more information didn’t fix my business
• The funnel rabbit hole that wasted months of time
